Cherry Darlene Sandberg
Cherry Darlene Sandberg, of Georgetown, passed on August 2, 2024, at the age of 75 after a long battle with cancer. Cherry was born October 8, 1948, to Tommy and Violet Sandberg and spent her childhood years on a farm south of Georgetown. She struggled with life-long health issues, but despite this, she maintained a sense of humor and, for a brief period in 1984, submitted humorous articles to the Austin American-Statesman.
She was a kind person and had a soft heart for animals, especially pet dogs and cats.
She is survived by her brother Nick (Sheila) Sandberg of Utah, two nephews, Reagan (Heather) and Ryan (Gabby) Sandberg, and four grand nephews and one grand niece, as well as by her best friend John Upton.
